The discovery and comparative expression analysis of three distinct type I interferons in the perciform fish, meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Elsevier, 2018-02-07)
Type I interferons (IFN) play an important role in anti-viral responses. In teleost fish multiple genes exist, that are classified by group/subgroup. That multiple subgroups are present in Acanthopterygian ...
Diets containing shrimp protein hydrolysates provided protection to European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) affected by a Vibrio pelagius natural infection outbreak
(Elsevier, 2018-05-24)
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the dietary supplementation of shrimp protein hydrolysate (SPH) on somatic growth performance, innate immune response in juvenile European sea bass ...
Weaning European glass eels (Anguilla anguilla) with plant protein-based diets and its effects on intestinal maturation
(Elsevier, 2018-11-09)
Weaning glass eels with compound diets (36% proteins, 16% lipids) differing in their fishmeal (FM) level (50, 75 and 100% FM replaced by a blend of plant proteins, PP) was compared to a group fed cod ...
First report of Gambierdiscus in the Western Mediterranean Sea (Balearic Islands)
(IOC - UNESCO, 2018-02)
Gambierdiscus (Dinophyceae) species are benthic dinoflagellates living in marine littoral zones of circumtropical areas and have recently been described in temperate waters [1]. Some species are producers ...
Influence of temperature and light regime on the larval development of the common spider crab Maja brachydactyla Balss, 1922 (Brachyura: Majidae)
(Wiley, 2018-08-27)
Temperature and light are important factors affecting production in the aquaculture industry, as they can drive behaviour and physiological responses of free‐swimming larval stages. However, the influence ...
Assessment of cytotoxicity in ten strains of Gambierdiscus australes from Macaronesian Islands by neuro-2a cell-based assays
(Springer, 2018-06-15)
Within the dinoflagellate genus Gambierdiscus several species are well-known producers of ciguatoxins (CTXs) and maitotoxins (MTXs). These compounds are potent marine toxins that accumulate through the ...
Review of the principal diseases affecting cultured meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Wiley, 2018-01-23)
Argyrosomus regius was recently introduced in European aquaculture as a promising species for diversification and with high potential for expansion in the coming years. The reports on pathologies affecting ...
The effect of algal turbidity on larval performance and the ontogeny of digestive enzymes in the grey mullet (Mugil cephalus)
(Elsevier, 2018-11-12)
A study comprised of two trials determined the effects of water turbidity produced by live microalgae and inert clay particles on the larval rearing of grey mullet (Mugil cephalus). Trial 1 evaluated ...
Egg quality variability in common dentex (Dentex dentex, L.): Comparison of different quality indexes
(Elsevier, 2018-11-10)
The egg quality of two common dentex captive broodstocks were monitored for two consecutive years during their natural spawning season. Volume of spawned eggs, volume of buoyant eggs, fertilization rate, ...
Dietary soybean lecithin affects growth performance, fillet biochemical composition and digestive enzyme activity in Sparidentex hasta juvenile
(Taylor & Francis, 2018-12-18)
An eight-week study was conducted on silvery-black porgy (Sparidentex hasta) juveniles to evaluate four isoproteic, isolipidic and isoenergetic different diets (50% crude protein, 20% crude lipids, ...
